DescriptionAnalyses agenda-setting around the issue of global health on the EU agenda, and the barriers for creating a strong European global health agenda. Abstract
Analyses the development of two alcohol-related initiatives adopted during the Swedish Presidency in 2001. It is argued that this decisions were made possible by using four strategies: priority, anchorage, lowest common denominator and baby steps. Abstract Examines the ongoing process of mental health policy-making in the EU with special attention to the ‘multi-level’ involvement; direct interaction between trans-national, national and infra-national actors, which is a relatively neglected area. Abstract Argues that the current attention to obesity in the EU is heavily influenced by WHO research reports and recommendations, which supply EU institutions with a new agenda that mobilizes pan-European groups and private sector interests. Abstract Focuses on the attempts of independent regulators to manipulate frames and venues in order to shape policy, examining these dynamics in the case of the Directive on Traditional Herbal Medicine. Abstract This book develops a theoretical and methodological framework for studying agenda-setting processes in the European Union, and applies it in the fields of health and environmental policy. Identifies two types of agenda setting in the EU, "from above“ and "from below“, and illustrates them and their potential interaction in two case studies: anti-smoking policy and bioterrorism.
